Profits in Wheat Culture.

Very few farmers keep accounts of
their crops, or the cost of raising any
kind of live stock. For this reason
few know the profits or loss on
single crop, and whether their hogs,
cattle, horses and mules have been a
source of gain or absolute loss. Oc-
casionally you find farmer who car
ries out business methods on his farm,
and all such farmers you will find not

G. 7. Ridley, near Mckenzie, Tenn,

Painless Regulation,

1t is no longer question of doubt
although the contrary was once be-
lieved-that medicines which produce
violent effects are unsuited to other
than desperate emergencies. In other
words, that super-potent remedies are
calculated to weaken and injure the
system rather than reform its irregu-
larities. Among medicines of debili-
tating effect are cathartics and chola-
gogues which copiously and abruptly
evacuate the bowels Because it does
not do this, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is preferable to the drenching
class of purgatives. Painless in its
effects, it is sufficiently active to remedy
constipation. 1t relieves by invigora-
ting the intestines, and enables, not
forces, them by nature. Promoting
the secretion of bile in normal quaint
ties by its BEAUTIFULLY stimulating effect
upon the liver, it is eminently conduc-
i've to digestion, and contributes in no
small degree to keep the bowels regular.

After having made one or two fur buying
trips for his employer. during which time he
had mastered all the details of the business and

ments, after having paid him q visit, and from
that day his star was in the ascendant. His
fur and music trade increased, and by the
time that his great success had caused active
competition to spring up, his business had be-
como so firmly established that no amount of
opposition could seriously affect 1t. He mar

in preparing the furs. After he had become

the value Of which, of course, increased
greatly with the growth Of the city. Up to
this point Astor's career was q most note
worthy one, as evincing the great natural
business capacity and astuteness Of the boy
and man, but beyond this his history is sim
ply a tale OF the growth of business and the
increase in the value of real estate. Since the
original John Jacob Astor died, all that his
descendants have done is TO keep the money
together and apply its natural accumulations
to the capital. This they nave indeed done

richest man in the United States, while the

The chief obstacle to the passage and
approval of the bill providing for a de-
partment of agriculture, is said to be Mr..
Colman, commissioner of agriculture.
That official assumes that if the bill shall
become a law, he will become its bcne6-
ciary, and that he will transfer his field of
operations from the floors of the two
houses, where he has spent so much of
his time lately, to the cabinet room.
Those who are near the White house say
that the president, in selecting a commits
sioner of agriculture 'front.' the editor of an
agricultural paper in Missouri. did not in
tend thereby to choose a cabinet officer,
and that he does not wish to be placed
in the embarrassing position Of declining
to appoint him in the event that the bill
which he has SO skillfully guided through
the two houses shall become a law.

THE TEXAS

The senatorial inquiry into the troubles
existing in Washington county, Texas,
has shown that the ill feeling there is very
much like i'll feeling anywhere else. Cer-
tain desperate characters taught the ne
groes that the Democratic party had
caused the earthquakes, the floods and the
%tornadoes, and the blacks, who were in
the majority, assumed an attitude toward
the whites which the latter construed as
threatening, if nothing more. Wrongs
on both sides increased the feeling, until
vigilance committees were formed and
warnings we're given to certain worthless
characters that they must leave the coun-
ty. On election day a negro killed a
white man and two or three negroes were
lynched by a mob.
In other states such incidents as those
which are reported from Washington
county, Texas, are as common as cleo
tons. Only a few weeks ago, in Colo
RADIO, one party drove another party into
the mountains and inaugurated a reign of
terror at the county seat. No senatorial
inquiry in that case. Last Sunday a
county seat fight in Kansas resulted in
wholesale murder. Every man in two ad-
Joining towns was armed and prepared to
renew the war. No senatorial inqairy.

THE T

The Astor library was founded by the elder
John Jacob Aston grandfather OF John Jacob
Astorl, who died in 1913, leaving behind him
what was in those days considered untold
wealth. His win contained q codicil appro-
priating 500, 900 for the establishment Of a
free library in New York city. Joseph G.
Cogswell. Ii. D., was the first superintendent
OF the library. The building, as it now stands,
is really three times its original size, the second
section having been built by William B.
Aston, the son OF the founder, and the third
section by the present John Jacob Astor. The
library contains nearly 250,0 900 volumes, md
has cost the Astor family up to date very
much more than 81 ,000, 900.
The history OF the foundation OF the Aston
fortune is very interesting reading. John ia
cob Astor, ST., was born in the village Of Wal
dorf, Germany, in 11C3. His father was a
combination of farmer and butcher. AT the
age OF II Johns father remarked, his first
wife having died in the meantime, and this
stepmother it was who caused young Aston
by her ill-treatment of him to take the step
which was the beginning Of the career which
subsequently made him one of the wealthiest
men in the world. John left home with
scarcely n cent, but upon reaching the
Rhine he obtained employment upon
n raft, and in time succeeded in get
ting together n little money, which he
expended for passage to London. There he
was warmly welcomed by his brother, who
was n manufacturer Of musical instruments
in a small way. He remained there for two
years, during which time he had learned TO
speak English quite well, and had also accu-
mulnted about SI5 in money and n couple OF
suits of clothes. He paid his brother s25 for
seven German flutes, bought n steerage ticket
TO New York for $25 and started for IN new
world to carve out n fortune for himself with
t2j in his pocket. Arrived at New York,
young Aston received n hearty welcome from
his brother Henry, who was n butcher there.
He told him that a friend whom he had met
on tho trip over had advised him to join
hin in the fur business. His brother pointed
out to him that in order to be successful
